DNA Ligase IV

 

This table contains entries for DNA ligase IV and other members of the DNA ligase family, as well as for different proteins involved in non-homologous end joining DNA repair, for a few representative organisms from the UniProt/Swiss-Prot & TrEMBL database, with links to view the original protein entries.  Links are included to the graphical matches in InterPro for each protein, which displays the signatures that match the protein, the structural information for the protein, as well as its domain architecture.
